This is my first post here but probably not the last a first of all want to apologize for my English it's not perfect :/
On Monday I have put my new rig together and after that my new lovely mobo don’t recognize soundcard. So, the next step was to change the PCI slots but that didn’t help. I change the bios from 1.4 to 1.8 (betas and official), try different Windows. First XP SP2, second XP Pro 64bit but still no soundcard detect . On other’s computers the card works fine. I try to put my friend’s same card and still the same…no sound Now I’m out of options where can be the problem?
BTW: I did notice that don’t have the other giga LAN in the device manager and when I checked the manual in INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS is something like “onboard Giga LAN” - disable/enable but in my bios don’t have this option. Clearing the CMOS didn’t help, I have leaved him for hole night with no power and cmos clear jumper position and that didn’t work. The same situation is in other bioses.
I have seen here and on other forums that some people have the same problems with this board and Audigy. Is there a solution for this problem?
Here is my spec:
A64 3200 Winchester 0506 EPBW with box cooler for now
MSI K8N Neo2 (here is picture of the NB ) - 046242 042042 K KOREA
2x 256 PC 3200 Kingston HyperX (BH5) 2.2.2.6 1T @2.85v
Sapphire X800 XTPE
Antec 380
Audigy (On the chip is somthing like that CA0100IAF)
HDD Baracuda VII 120GB PATA 7200
DVDRW Liteon 832S
Windows XP Pro SP2 with all available updates
I asked the same question on MSI forums but no luck
Thx for any help

Too bad
I don't have any idea where your problems could be. Do you've the Audigy installation CD and the drivers?
BIOS 1.36b has worked very fine in my Mobo, in that bios you can find integr. audio settings (AC97 disable/enabled)
Hope you get your soundcard to work!

KosiMazaki - have you disabled onboard sound in BIOS?
do you use front panel also?
winXPx64 recognised audigy card first time in this PC ok - sorry for your problems =/
Sure I have the driver installation CD for this card but every time when I try to install an error message appears and says "No Audigy device detected bla bla bla...installation setup will now terminate". The problem is that the mobo can’t detect the soundcard and any other PCI devices like network card.
I think somthing is wrong with this motherboard On Monday i wiil send it back to the shop.....sad
@Special_K
Don't use front panel and the onboard sound is disabled.

I had the same problem with this mobo when I got my AUDIGY 2 ZS. A clean install of Win XP fixed the problem for me as it said just what you are saying now.Originally Posted by KosiMazaki
I got this board it came with bios 1.5, installed my venice today and idle temps are 40~ and load 50~ with Xp-90 and tornado fan, I think bios is reading the temps wrong. Case temps are 23, I have very good case cooling, I need to know what is the best bios for this board and my Ocz Rev.2 which is on its way. Right now I'm on 1.8 and still temp problem.
With bios 1.5 I got it to post at 330fsb didn't try for higher, haven't tried with bios 1.8.
Just installed fresh system and nothing changed so in my opinion the PCI slots are dead :P On monday the board is going back to store.Originally Posted by Mitolo

I found that an Audigy only likes the slot right above the communication pci slot (orange slot) any slot other than that. It is not picked up properly after installing it. So if you have an audigy 2 hopefully this tidbit of information helps somebody.
Crazzy as hell cause my AUDIGY 2 ZS loves the ORANGE Slot.Originally Posted by neo2

Finally got my neo2 semi-stable (still prime95'ing) @ high HTT. After alot of cursing and confusion i figured that high HTT and 9x multi just doesn't go together on this system
Oddly enough it worked fine at 300x8 (2400mhz), mem at "166", but it was no-go at 289x9(2601mhz) at the same settings.
tryed 306x8.5(2601mhz), again mem @ "166" and it seems to be fine
The memory is slower since its using a half-multi, but its still better then 260x10, mem "166"
Either the cpu doesn't like 9x, or the motherboard doesn't like 285-295htt... weird.

Ok.. this is my first experience with K8 and it's not going so good..
Problem 1: Board will NOT run in dual channel... it will post in dual channel maybe 2 out of 100 times.. and when it does get past post, it restarts on the windows load.
Problem 2: Can you not select a divider on this board? I have the chip running at 300x9, 3x HT... but the only place it will post is with the max dram clock on 133... the ram is actually running at 193mhz according to CPUZ. This is with a pair of mushkin BH5's with the vdimm set to 2.85V.
I am so frustrated with this board right now.
I have the same problem, is it the bios or the mobo is fuct? I thought the ram was suppose to lock at a certain speed set.
Ive been messing around with the neo 2 and a san diego 3700. It doesnt like the 3 x htt multi at all and most of the dividers are also glitchy. 1:1 works best for me with 4 x HTT. Also the memory timings need a lot of fiddling with to make the system stable.
Running at 260 x 11 at the moment prime stable.

I think we need a new bios for these san diegos to really see their maximum but im quite happy with the neo 2
this board is 50-50 in terms of success. For me it's been great and hasn't crashed since november 2k4 running it at 300mhz 1:1 with Gskill tccd and an early version of the 3000+ winchester. That is unless I'm finding the max OC of a new cpu, then I will obviously crash it. I too have an audigy2 zs card and have no problems with it in any slot. The only negative remark I have is the board's placement of the IDE and power connectors being too close. The other remark would be the uselessness of sata ports 1 and 2, but that's a harware limitation. Now I wouldn't recommend this board to everyone because half the pople I have recommended it have gotten DUD boards and pretty much blame me for it. Such is the way of life.
BY THE WAY, does anyone know if the OCZ 625mhz DFI edition memory works well with this mobo.

Great thread as I am considering getting this board as I just got a 6800GT AGP and want to upgrade to A64 from an XP. I have read numerous posts about the Neo2 and Antec power supplies and saw the tip about turning the power supply off when powering down, etc. I don't really want to buy another ps just so I can run this board. Do MOST people who have an Antec ps have problems and what kind of problems do they have? I am not very excited about powering off my ps every time I turn my pc off, but there aren't really any other options for 939 AGP boards right now until the DFI comes out (if ever).
Anyone have any more inside on Antec ps and the Neo2? Would you go with the Neo2 if you had an Antec?
Thanks!

Anyone using the 183 divider (a64 tweaker) STABLE with cas2 ram?
Whenever I force the board to the 183 divider it deosn't like it. It won't let my 2x512 mushkin redline get over 245 in superpi (it can do 270). It works just fine at the 166 divider (after putting in 1:1 timings), but not 183. I'm using 1.36b bios.

try using cas 2.5 since there is little to no performance penalty

What sort of CPU temps are too high?
The default in core center is around 80C.
I thought a CPU would fry at that temp.

questions
1. which is the best bios for venice?
2. when will there be a new official bios? wasn't it 1.8 only BETA?
3. I look in everest, maximum HT link only 800! --> AMD hammer HT Tech Config
4. I got BSOD said something wrong with IRQ.....what was that exactly? that was with 1.5 official BIOS, I'm currently using 1.8mod

Im using the official as 1.8mod seemed to cause temperature errors still. 1.8 official seems very stable for me on my san diego so try that.
Was that with version 2.0 of everest or the older version? It reads it correctly for me. If i remember right 1.8mod bios sets HTT to 4x in bios, it should be 5x if you are running at 200 mhz ram speed then you will get your 1000.
The Irq conflict could be lots of things. Go into integrated peripherals and disable anything u dont use like serial ports and lan etc. Look in System information which can be found in accessories/system tools. Click hardware Resources then IRQS. It will show you if devices are sharing an IRQ. You can move your pci devices to other slots to change their IRQ's or set it in bios.
